    Hi,

    I have been tasked with the project of scanning and identifying all non
    Cisco wireless access points within the company’s network.

    We have about 800 /22 and /24 subnets, and because of the IP addressing
    scheme in place, might just be easier for me to scan the whole class A range
    of IP’s.

    I have access to Nessus and GFI Security Scanner.  Since we over 8000 IP’s
    in place, does anyone have any advice on the best way to identify these non
    Cisco AP’s such as Linksys and Netgear, etc.

    I wouldn’t want to have a report produced that is two miles long unless
    absolutely necessary.

    Thanks,

    Jonathan
